	Media	Author	Review
		Caryn James The New York Times	"[Its] sharp writing elevates it above its strained concept"
		Steve Johnson Chicago Tribune	"'Roswell' is, really, not bad. But in a prime-time universe crowded with quality dramas in general and quality supernatural dramas in particular, pretty good is not quite good enough."
		Laura Fries Variety	"[This] series is anything but ordinary, a cosmic blend of high school angst and otherworldly intrigue."
		Olly Richards Empire	"The first series packs a hell of a lot of action into its run (...) The only problem is that it leaves itself with very few places to go (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Tyrone Rodriguez IGN	"'Roswell' does much to revive that sort of mysterious mood we felt when Mulder and Scully first tackled the syndicate."
		Will Wade Common Sense Media	"[It] is clearly sci-fi, but below the surface lies a more fundamental issue -- who will end up together in the end? -- that makes the show similar to any other teen drama (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
